We flew into Chicago and went to see this the evening we landed, after checking in at our hotel. I'd wanted to see the Blue Man Group perform for years.To sum it up - just a funny, bizarre, hilariously deadpan comedy show with some great props like the GiPad - that sketch is great - and the singing lama sketch.When they walk through the crowd to pick volunteers, it's a little nerve racking because they look so scary, but the sketch/es that follows are brilliantly entertaining - without giving too much away!The audience participation warm up at the start of the show is also good fun, and I love it when they bang those drums and the paint splashes everywhere in this amazing colour show.

Sadly, it was just okay....the blue men were great and I liked their subtle face movements and gestures. However, the show feels very amateurish and for the money simply does not cut it. I was disappointed and so was my companion.

This was the second time I had seen this event. Went with my husband many years ago, and this time brought my 10 and 8 year olds. We were really looking forward to it. Overall, it was entertaining. Unfortunately we left on a low note because we missed the entire last scene. There was a malfunction with one of the "big balloons." We were sitting in the balcony and one of the balloons could not be secured, so it just floated in front of us. Real bummer for my kids. Didn't help that we were scolded for trying to move the balloon out of our view.

Terribly disappointing performance. After years of looking forward to watching Blue Man Group, the show turned out to be an incredible waste. It wasn't original or authentic, but rather very dependent upon technology instead of talent or creative skill. Many people in the audience were outwardly unhappy with the weird antics displayed and the overly loud music and lights toward the end of the show. I wish I'd known more about what the actual performance was going to include before paying such high prices. It was utterly disappointing. I'll be sure to spread the word to everyone I know.

This was my second time experiencing a BMG event and probably the best. First time was in an arena, years ago but this time in their home theater. We were seated in the front row and my friend got to participate during one song in the performance. She wasn't sure she'd even enjoy the show and was nervous about having to be in a poncho; she didn't know anything about the act or the show but ended up having a great time! Always amazed by how much is conveyed through gestures and body language at a BMG show. Would definitely do it again!

These guys would be much better to watch in a small venue. We were too far away to feel the eye contact and facial theatrics essential to Blue Man viewing. The performance wasn't as "rocking" and instrumental as we imagined.

I have to be honest: I bought the tickets to surprise my husband who had always wanted to see BMG. I was not expecting the show to be so amazing! It was fun and we laughed a lot. The improvisation was great and you really felt like part of the performance. Going in, I was concerned it would be a loud night of drums, but the volume was not overpowering and there was so much more to the show than the percussion performances. This is a fun, family friendly show that I highly recommend! Can't wait to see the show again in NYC!

It is always great to do fun things with your kids. I have a 12 year old and 14 year old. I have been to the show several times in the past but this was their first time. I always love seeing the fun of this show, but this time my kids got to experience it. Half of the time I watched them as their faces were GLUED to every moment. A smile had been drawn on their faces and it did not leave until long after the show was over. My son (12) looked dazedly and said... "This is the best day of my life." as he walked as if he was seeing the world for the first time. Fantastic show, great crew! You could tell they run as professional of a show as anyone. so, Take your kids, don't worry if you are in the balcony or the back or up front. Each experience is fantastic and each is unique.

I loved this show! Very entertaining! I couldn't look away from the stage. I do wish it was longer than 90 minutes since it was the only performance but besides that it was mind blowing and I recommend that everyone goes at least once!

I went to go see The Blue Man Group about 8 years ago and it was great. So I decided to surprise my fiance with tickets to go see them this year. This show was amazing that we went to. They have upgraded the show sooooo much since the last time I've been. The show is so much more interactive then used to be. I love how the Blue Man Group has comedy, music, and art. Just an amazingly unique experience, and a wonderful show for all ages! So much fun. Thank you Blue Man Group!!!
